The truth will out.
by Walter Block via International Man I don’t know how this is done in Vancouver and its other suburbs, but in North Vancouver, the law mandates compulsory recycling. If you don’t, in addition to a fine, the garbage men (Sanitation Engineers, nowadays) will decline to pick up your refuse. You are required to do this […]
by Robert Fellner via Mises.org The Canadian government is now freezing the bank accounts and personal assets of those who donated to support the Freedom Convoy, which is an organized political protest of the vaccine mandates. The deputy prime minister announced that they will retain these so-called emergency powers permanently going forward and will also seek to implement […]
by Gilbert Berdine, MD, via Mises.org President Joe Biden recently extended the US national emergency for covid-19. A confrontation between truckers protesting Canadian covid mandates and the government in Ottawa has turned ugly. The debate over covid mandates has turned toward authoritarian tactics rather than the merits of the mandates. Irrespective of the debate on the […]
by David McGrogan via Brownstone Institute Justin Trudeau’s confrontation with the Canadian truckers may be the single most significant event of the Covid pandemic – not because of its eventual outcome, whatever that may be, but because of what it symbolises. It captures, in perfect microcosm, the tensions between the competing imperatives of the age: […]
by Dr. Joseph Mercola STORY AT-A-GLANCE Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has invoked the Emergencies Act in response to the trucker Freedom Convoy Under this act, financial institutions can seize bank accounts of protesters and anyone who has donated $25 or more to the protest. Government can also revoke the drivers’ licenses of protesters Trudeau […]
by Mitch Nemeth via Mises.org On February 14, Canadian deputy prime minister and minister of finance Chrystia Freeland announced a government crackdown on the now infamous “Freedom Convoy 2022.” Freeland stated, “If your truck is being used in these illegal blockades, your corporate accounts will be frozen, the insurance on your vehicle will be suspended.” The announcement […]
by Paul Craig Roberts via Institute for Political Economy The most dangerous form of tyranny has raised its head simultaneously in Canada and the United States. The exercise of civil liberty is being criminalized. In Canada the city government of Ottawa with the aid of the US FBI and US Department of Homeland Security is […]
by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. via LewRockwell.com The tinpot dictator Justin Trudeau thought he could extend his regime of Covid Tyranny, but a massive number of Canadian truckers have defied him. They have a good chance of forcing him to back down and maybe toppling his government as well. Aden Tate tells us what happened: […]
by Vasko Kohlmayer via LewRockwell.com “Every word he says he is a lie. A nose as long as the trucker‘s convoy.” – Dr. Jordan B. Peterson When thousands of truckers drove toward Ottawa in protest against the vaccine mandates, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described them as “the small fringe minority” holding “unacceptable views.” As the […]
by Fast Rope God bless the Canadian truckers for showing us all how to fight for freedom and how to stand up to tyrants. I predict that Justin Trudeau (aka Coward-19) will cave very soon—and the rest of the global covid tyrants will follow. The people have had enough of their ruling overlords’ totalitarian nonsense. […]
by James Bovard via Mises.org The denigration of the Canadian trucker protest convoy exemplifies how freedom is now the biggest villain of the covid-19 pandemic. A Washington Post cartoonist portrayed the trucker convoy as “fascism” incarnate while another Post column derided the “toxic ‘Freedom Convoy.’” Anyone who resists any government command is apparently now a public […]
by Ron Paul via Ron Paul Institute We all remember where we were when the Berlin Wall came down. While it may have seemed that communist rule would go on forever, when the people decided that they had enough suddenly the wall fell. Just like that. Thus it is after two years of Covid authoritarianism […]
by Robert Bridge via Strategic Culture Foundation It’s not a good sign that Justin Trudeau has removed himself from the public spotlight at possibly the most pivotal point in his political career. The Canadian Prime Minister, who recently described the trucker convoy as a “small fringe minority” who hold “unacceptable views” against Covid man(da)tes, may […]
by Jeffrey A. Tucker via Brownstone Institute The resistance reveals itself always in unexpected ways. As I type, thousands of truckers (numbers are in flux and are in dispute) are part of a 50-mile-long convoy in Canada, headed to the capital city of Ottawa in protest against an egregious vaccine mandate imposed by Prime Minister […]
author Caitlin Johnstone We live in a far less free society than most of us think. It looks like we’re free. We don’t get thrown in prison for criticizing our government officials. We can vote for whoever we want. We can log onto the internet and look up information on any subject we’re interested in. […]
